Tea Partiers to Transfer Funds

~ Pharmer

Christine O’Donnell, Delaware winner, bashes ‘cannibalism’ – Mike Allen – POLITICO.com.

Since it appears that the Republican party is refusing to  stand behind the candidate who won their Delaware  Primary,  more of the real conservatives will have to allocate their political funding towards individual candidates, and NOT THE RNC.

Conservatism will have to be grass roots for a good while longer, it seems.

Spend your Money Here if you would like to support O’Donnell for U.S. Senate. If she wins in November, she takes her seat immediately, (because this is an election replacing Biden’s seat).

If She Wins, there is potential for the Republicans to stop some of the lame duck activities of the Senate before January.

If O’Donnell Wins….. the old guard republican party will begin to understand a need to listen to the people, and the Democrats will Freak Out.

If you donate to O’Donnell, be sure to write to Sen. John Cornyn to tell him what you did with your money.   He needs more encouragement to understand that a political party  is supposed to be supporting its candidates enthusiastically.

FDA mulls pulling diet pill linked to heart attack.

A study found that 11 percent of the diet pill,  Meridia,  users experienced heart attack or stroke compared with 10 percent of those using placebo.

So the FDA wants to yank it.

However…….. the pill, which is well known for association with these events, as well as with  diabetes and certain cancers……. only affects women, with the group showing the most marked  negative effects  being those under 30.  (More links below).   These things are  not of curiosity to the FDA, which has put Plan B over the counter.

The FDA is pulling billions of eggs off the shelves due to a low incidence of salmonella in undercooked products.  Again…… a small percentage of males, who eat undercooked eggs, are suffering severe diarrhea, and drastic action is needed.

We’re STILL waiting for the FDA to take its role in exacerbating drug shortage problems more seriously and do something about it.   Do not hold your breath.   The lawyer feeding frenzy from  the errors, caused by necessary  drug substitutions and in house compounding, would make any government bureaucrat  giddy.

Gaffe: what occurs when a politician accidentally tells the truth

Castro says he was misinterpreted on Cuban economy.

Jeffrey Goldberg asked Castro

” if Cuba’s economic system was still worth exporting to other countries. He said that Castro replied: “The Cuban model doesn’t even work for us anymore.” ”

Fidel says he meant the exact opposite.

AHA!!!!!!!!!

That’s why he’s  begging for the American embargo on trade with Cuba to be lifted, and the lefties are on the same rescue mission.
